Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Mix in creamy peanut butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually blend the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.

Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet with enough space between each.

Using a fork, create a criss-cross pattern on each dough ball.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden brown but centers are slightly underbaked.

Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
